In my view “Brookline” must be called expressive, even “explosive”
			so to speak. But the longer one looks at it, two other aspects become
			important, which are, at first sight, pushed back by the dominance of
			color, which is supported by the fact that many lines from the basic
			line sketch became just edges of color shapes. But even in this
			reduced appearance, the line structure, its strict composition as the
			backbone of this image, presents more and more a massive
			counterweight for the “detonating” colors. A second aspect the image
			develops the longer it is viewed is a certain enigmatic narrative,
			calming down the appearance like freezing a motion, like a freeze
			frame in a way. Now the onlooker may start the film again and see.
